About
RIOT has held a place in the Minneapolis underground art scene since 1997.
Born from frustration at a city that was too plain, too boring, too clean and too sedated RIOT began a mission of Urban Reclamation and Beautification in Minneapolis. Though street art, graffiti, stencil art, and poster art, RIOT became notorious and also synonyms with Minneapolis street culture. Then the Midwest. Then across the borders, and oceans.
Now, in 2009 RIOT is breaking new ground and making its worldwide brand of mischief available to everyone.
The Design Collective is a collaborative effort of many artists, from musicians to muralists.
This website will serve as your gateway into a pool of talent that is rooted in Minneapolis, and has now expanded around the world.
RIOT can been found in places as far flung as Barcelona, Mexico City, London, Lima Peru, San Francisco, Milwaukee, Toronto, and more. RIOT is still expanding and producing new art and being inspired everyday.
